Identification of urinary exosomal noncoding RNAs as novel biomarkers in chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: In chronic kidney disease (CKD), the decline in the glomerular filtration rate is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and thus poses a major challenge for healthcare systems. While the contribution of tissue-derived miRNAs and mRNAs to CKD progression has been extensively studied, little is known about the role of urinary exosomes and their association with CKD. Exosomes are small, membrane-derived endocytic vesicles that contribute to cell-to-cell communication and are present in various body fluids, such as blood or urine. Next-generation sequencing approaches have revealed that exosomes are enriched in noncoding RNAs and thus exhibit great potential for sensitive nucleic acid biomarkers in various human diseases. Therefore, in this study we aimed to identify urinary exosomal ncRNAs as novel biomarkers for diagnosis of CKD. Since up to now most approaches have focused on the class of miRNAs, we extended our analysis to several other noncoding RNA classes, such as tRNAs, tRNA fragments (tRFs), mitochondrial tRNAs, or lincRNAs. For their computational identification from RNA-seq data, we developed a novel computational pipeline, designated as ncRNASeqScan. By these analyses, in CKD patients we identified 30 differentially expressed ncRNAs, derived from urinary exosomes, as suitable biomarkers for early diagnosis. Thereby, miRNA-181a appeared as the most robust and stable potential biomarker, being significantly decreased by about 200-fold in exosomes of CKD patients compared to healthy controls. Using a cell culture system for CKD indicated that urinary exosomes might indeed originate from renal proximal tubular epithelial cells.

Plasma-derived exosomal long noncoding RNAs of pancreatic cancer patients as novel blood-based biomarkers of disease.

Project description:BackgroundPancreatic cancer (PaCa) is one of the most intractable and fatal malignancies and is associated with the dysregulation of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are a large class of noncoding RNAs larger than 200 nt that act as competing endogenous RNAs or sponges for miRNAs to induce tumour biological behaviours. However, their clinical value in treating pancreatic cancer has been poorly explained, but they are essential for improving the prognosis of PaCa patients.MethodsWe analysed the plasma-derived exosomal lncRNA profiles of PaCa patients by using whole-transcriptome sequencing analysis and identified significantly differentially expressed lncRNAs, including LINC01268, LINC02802, AC124854.1, and AL132657.1. In the current study, the expression levels of four plasma-derived exosomal lncRNAs in PaCa plasma were validated via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‒PCR). The relationship between the expression of the four lncRNAs and the clinicopathological features of patients with PaCa was also evaluated.ResultsWe demonstrated that exosomal LINC01268, LINC02802, AC124854.1 and AL132657.1 were highly expressed in PaCa plasma compared with those in normal controls; moreover, they were positively correlated with the serum expression of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9). The receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of the four lncRNAs were 0.8421, 0.6544, 0.7190, and 0.6321, and the AUC value of the combination of the four exosomal lncRNAs increased to 0.8476, with a sensitivity of 0.72 and specificity of 0.89. These results suggested that the plasma-derived exosomal genes LINC01268, LINC02802, AC124854.1, and AL132657.1 may be novel diagnostic markers for PaCa.ConclusionsOur research demonstrated that the plasma-derived exosomal lncRNAs of PaCa patients are novel blood-based biomarkers of disease.

Urinary exosomal long noncoding RNAs serve as biomarkers for early detection of non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Increasing the efficiency of early diagnosis using noninvasive biomarkers is crucial for enhancing the survival rate of lung cancer patients. We explore the differential expression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)-related long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in urinary exosomes in NSCLC patients and normal controls to diagnose lung cancer. A differential expression analysis between NSCLC patients and healthy controls was performed using microarrays. Gene ontology (GO) term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were used to predict potential functions of lncRNAs in NSCLC. quantitative real-time PCR (QT-PCR) was used to verify microarray results. A total of 640 lncRNAs (70 up- and 570 down-regulated) were differentially expressed in NSCLC patients in comparison to healthy controls. Six lncRNAs were detected by QT-PCR. GO term and KEGG pathway analyses showed that differential lncRNAs were enriched in cellular component organization or biogenesis, as well as other biological processes and signaling pathways, such as the PI3K-AKT, FOXO, p53, and fatty acid biosynthesis. The differential lncRNAs in urinary exosomes are potential diagnostic biomarkers of NSCLC. The lncRNAs enriched in specific pathways may be associated with tumor cell proliferation, tumor cell apoptosis, and the cell cycle involved in the pathogenesis of NSCLC.

Urinary exosomal long noncoding RNAs may be novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma

Project description:Background: Renal cell carcinoma, which presents no significant clinical manifestations at early stages, is one of the few tumors with an increasing worldwide incidence. This malignancy cannot be directly detected by tumor markers in body fluid without information from imaging examinations. Approximately 30–40% of patients with kidney cancer exhibit distant metastasis at diagnosis, and their 5-year survival rate is much lower than that of patients with early-stage renal cell carcinoma. Thus, the early diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma is extremely important. The aim of this study was to investigate the utility of urinary exosomal long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) as a new potential diagnostic marker for renal cell carcinoma. Methods: Exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation from 50-ml urine samples from 10 patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma and 10 matched healthy donors. Differentially expressed lncRNAs were analyzed by next-generation sequencing and further validated in kidney cancer cell lines, tissues and urinary exosomes. Then, we evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, clinical diagnostic value and stability of the selected lncRNAs. Results: The levels of lncRNAs NR_040448 and NR_033390 in urinary exosomes can likely indicate the presence of renal cell carcinoma. In addition, RNA protected by exosomes was stable enough to serve as a biomarker. Conclusion: Urinary exosomal lncRNA is a promising marker for the early diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma.

Urinary Exosomal MiRNA-4534 as a Novel Diagnostic Biomarker for Diabetic Kidney Disease.

Project description:Urinary exosomal miRNAs can reflect the physiological and possibly pathophysiological state of cells lining the kidney and participate in the regulation of transcription and translation of proteins, which are playing an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease. In the present study, urine was collected from DM and DKD patients with a duration more than 10 years and urinary exosomal miRNA profiling was conducted in urinary exosomes obtained from three patients with type 2 diabetes (DM) and three patients with type 2 diabetic kidney disease (DKD) using Exiqon's microRNA arrays. In total, the expression of 14 miRNAs (miR-4491, miR-2117, miR-4507, miR-5088-5P, miR-1587, miR-219a-3p, miR-5091, miR-498, miR-4687-3p, miR-516b-5p, miR-4534, miR-1275, miR-5007-3p, and miR-4516) was up-regulated (>2-fold) in DKD patients compared to healthy controls and DM patients. We used qRT-PCR based analysis of these 14 miRNAs in urinary exosomes from 14 DKD to 14 DM patients in confirmation cohort, among which seven miRNAs were consistent with the microarray results. The expressions of miR-4534 and miR-516b-5p correlated with trace proteinuria levels in the confirmation cohort. In conclusion, it has been confirmed that the expression of urinary exosomal miRNA in patients with type 2 diabetes DKD has changed. Mir-4534 might affect the FoxO signaling pathway by targeting BNIP3, and is expected to become a new biomarker for the progression of type 2 DKD disease, which will provide further research on the pathogenesis of DKD.

Noncoding RNAs as novel biomarkers in prostate cancer.

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common diagnosed malignant disease in men worldwide. Although serum PSA test dramatically improved the early diagnosis of PCa, it also led to an overdiagnosis and as a consequence to an overtreatment of patients with an indolent disease. New biomarkers for diagnosis, prediction, and monitoring of the disease are needed. These biomarkers would enable the selection of patients with aggressive or progressive disease and, hence, would contribute to the implementation of individualized therapy of the cancer patient. Since the FDA approval of the long noncoding PCA3 RNA-based urine test for the diagnosis of PCa patients, many new noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) associated with PCa have been discovered. According to their size and function, ncRNAs can be divided into small and long ncRNAs. NcRNAs are expressed in (tumor) tissue, but many are also found in circulating tumor cells and in all body fluids as protein-bound or incorporated in extracellular vesicles. In these protected forms they are stable and so they can be easily analyzed, even in archival specimens. In this review, the authors will focus on ncRNAs as novel biomarker candidates for PCa diagnosis, prediction, prognosis, and monitoring of therapeutic response and discuss their potential for an implementation into clinical practice.

Novel Urinary Biomarkers For Improved Prediction Of Progressive Egfr Loss In Early Chronic Kidney Disease Stages And In High Risk Individuals Without Chronic Kidney Disease.

Project description:Chronic kidney disease is associated with increased risk of CKD progression and death. Therapeutic approaches to limit progression are limited. Developing tools for the early identification of those individuals most likely to progress will allow enriching clinical trials in high risk early CKD patients. The CKD273 classifier is a panel of 273 urinary peptides that enables early detection of CKD and prognosis of progression. We have generated urine capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry-based peptidomics CKD273 subclassifiers specific for CKD stages to allow the early identification of patients at high risk of CKD progression. In the validation cohort, the CKD273 subclassifiers outperformed albuminuria and CKD273 classifier for predicting rapid loss of eGFR in individuals with baseline eGFR?>?60?ml/min/1.73?m2. In individuals with eGFR?>?60?ml/min/1.73?m2 and albuminuria <30?mg/day, the CKD273 subclassifiers predicted rapid eGFR loss with AUC ranging from 0.797 (0.743-0.844) to 0.736 (0.689-0.780). The association between CKD273 subclassifiers and rapid progression remained significant after adjustment for age, sex, albuminuria, DM, baseline eGFR, and systolic blood pressure. Urinary peptidomics CKD273 subclassifiers outperformed albuminuria and CKD273 classifier for predicting the risk of rapid CKD progression in individuals with eGFR?>?60?ml/min/1.73?m2. These CKD273 subclassifiers represented the earliest evidence of rapidly progressive CKD in non-albuminuric individuals with preserved renal function.

Identification of biomarkers of chronic kidney disease among kidney-derived proteins.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) has few objective symptoms, and it is difficult to make an early diagnosis by using existing methods. Therefore, new biomarkers enabling diagnosis of renal dysfunction at an early stage need to be developed. Here, we searched for new biomarkers of CKD by focusing on kidney-derived proteins that could sensitively reflect that organ's disease state.MethodsTo identify candidate marker proteins, we performed a proteomics analysis on renal influx and efflux blood collected from the same individual.ResultsProteomics analysis revealed 662 proteins in influx blood and 809 in efflux. From these identified proteins, we selected complement C1q as a candidate; the plasma C1q level was significantly elevated in the renal efflux of donors. Moreover, the plasma concentration of C1q in a mouse model of diabetic nephropathy was significantly increased, in association with increases in blood glucose concentration and urinary protein content. Importantly, we demonstrated that the tendency of C1q to increase in the plasma of CKD patients was correlated with a decrease in their estimated glomerular filtration rate.ConclusionOverall, our results indicate that our approach of focusing on kidney-derived proteins is useful for identifying new CKD biomarkers and that C1q has potential as a biomarker of renal function.
